Ibby - your position might be clearer if you stated it. Do you believe
that FC is scientifically supported and ABA is not?

The oft-stated belief that supported typing is somehow analogous to climate
change, the holocaust, or Wakefield's vaccination scam appears to seem
clever to some people. I can see why it would, if the people had trouble
understanding research methods and goodness-of-fit. These people probably
also thoughtlessly believe ABA is therapy for autism, "because science,"
which pretty much marks them as non-scientists.
Best,

FC is or has been used with folks other than autistic. In fact, at one
point that was a selling point: that is, that it was supposed to work with
many, not only those with autism.
Saying that DJ is not autistic as a response to the post that Bob
Williams-Findley posted could be construed as a way to muddy the waters,
since FC was used with DJ. However, reports seem to indicate that he was
non-verbal (in the sense of speaking recognizable words) and was unable to
"type" without the help of Anna Stubblefield, who was convicted of two
counts of gross sexual abuse of that person.
I do begin to understand the frustration that some who work in other areas
have when people, in spite of valid scientific evidence to the contrary,
continue to believe that vaccines "cause" autism, or that the Holocaust did
not really occur.

There is a need to be civil and provide context. Personal point scoring
serves no good purpose.
So: let's consider this: "By 2001, Mark P. Mostert of Regent University
School of Education in Virginia Beach, Virginia reported in the second of
his high quality comprehensive reviews of peer-reviewed literature
investigating FC, that "Facilitated Communication (FC) had largely been
empirically discredited as an effective intervention for previously
uncommunicative persons with disabilities, especially those with autism and
related disorders. Key empirical findings consistently showed that the
facilitator and not the client initiated communication."
It is an emotive area because it raises serious questions in relation to
power-relations and abuse versus issues of self-determination

Mark, I guess you're closed to any
examples where FC is actually used by individuals as their primary and
preferred mode of communication then. Love the academic rigor and
unbiased approach you've taken.
I wish the rest of the world was as black and white.

Whatever the merits of the Stubblefield case, she has the
right to defend herself in court and has the right to be innocent until
proven
guilty. However, that fact that she
is basing her entire defense on the absolute incontrovertible lie of
Facilitated Communication is nothing short of astounding, and, IMO, will
not serve her well. Please spare me the slings
and arrows about how FC works and is in any way defensible
except as a bizarre fairytale. When used, it is without
question a form of abuse of the client and those who,
unfortunately, trust their abusers. Mark P. Mostert, PhD

Dear Community,
Most of you have probably heard about the
Stubblefield trial in New Jersey. It is very complicated and touches on so
many disability issues. There have been lengthy discussions on the Society
for Disability Studies members’ list and on Facebook. I’ll be happy to
fill you
in or answer questions off list.
For those of you who know Anna Stubblefield
and/or are significantly moved by her disability studies work, we are at
the point where there is a simple step individuals can take to assist her.
If you are so moved, let me know and I’ll send you the particulars.
Please excuse me if you receive multiple copies.
